Whenuakite Kiwi Care

The Whenuakite Kiwi Care Group is one of the projects working to protect Coromandel brown kiwi and kiwi habitat on Coromandel Peninsula.

Its aim is to make sure the area’s wild kiwi population survives in the long term, which can mean taking a broad focus on wider environmental issues if this helps improve kiwi habitat. To that end, along with its core work of co-ordinating predator control, the group runs campaigns to encourage people not to dump rubbish, garden waste and unwanted pets (especially cats) along roadsides.
